First, I’ve got to say I LOVE the print and cut feature in the software. chefs kiss this is making my sublimation life a million times better even despite the other issues I have (acrylic sheets warping when sublimating mostly). So whichever dev added this, I unabashedly love you.
Buuuut, I’ve got this one odd issue and I don’t know why the software is doing this or how to fix it.
I have a 13x19 sheet with my targets (I added extra targets in the off chance I needed to cut the size of the sheet down but didn’t end up using the center targets). It cuts literally perfectly on nearly all of them…except 5 random ones. It decided to make theses weird size and location adjustments. And it’s not even all in the same row or column. I added a photo with the ones circled that cut way off path.
Could I get some suggestions on why this is happening and how to correct it?
For what it’s worth I did see your post but didn’t have a good hypothesis for what was happening. Normally I would assume this is a missing steps type of problem but the fact that it seems to self-correct with some of the other targets would imply otherwise. Unless the laser path happens to follow all the bad cuts in sequential order.
Absolutely happy to share if it helps. I ran another cut tonight on a new sheet of sublimation prints and it messed up again but totally different ones this time. And again just 5 were messed up in random spots. It would be good, then mess one up, then be good again for a few cuts, then mess one up, etc etc. I don’t see any random artifacts that should be causing anything to be off but that doesn’t mean I’m not missing something super simple.
Can you upload the actual .lbrn file that you used to cut (rather than the SVG file)? I’m paticularly curious about the cut path to see the order in which things are being cut.
Are you seeing the same errors in the image on your controller’s display? When Ruida controllers get full they can sometimes create weird results like this. Clearing files off the controller could fix what you’re seeing, if that’s the case.
